Does 950 Pro now support eDrive?

[Chasim_]

I am building a new system and am looking at the Samsung 950 Pro. I will be running Bitlocker so I want Windows 10 Pro to be able to use the SSD's hardware encryption. The only thing I can find says "TCG Opal family spec and eDrive (IEEE® 1667) to be supported by FW update". Does anyone know if that firmware update has occurred? If not, I may be going with the 850 Pro as Bitlocker seems to (at least for me) really hurt Write speeds...

When can this update be expected. It´s been promised for a long time now...

Most likely when the 960 Pro comes out.

I would like to buy the 950 Pro but am waiting for the eDrive feature to be supported.

Looks like SAMSUNG backs down from the promise to give us IEEE1667 in a future firmware update. That is really bad. I bought this drive with this as the reason!
